edit data

Most leaders get promoted for what they’ve already proven. Then the bigger role asks for something different, and the support usually stops at the offer letter. Stephanie Schmid works in that gap. She’s an executive coach and the founder of Stephanie Schmid Coaching, where she created the Step Up 120 Method for women stepping into significantly bigger roles. Before coaching full time, she spent more than 30 years in Fortune 500 leadership at companies including ADP and eBay. She holds PCC, BCC, CEC, PMP, and SPHR credentials and coaches from Salt Lake City and Phoenix, often on the move through her Power Walk Method. Learn more at stephanieschmid.com.

Stephanie’s Quotes

“Grow with discipline. Balance intuition with rigor. Innovate around the core. Don't embrace the status quo. Find new ways to see. Never expect a silver bullet. Get your hands dirty. Listen with empathy and overcommunicate with transparency. Tell your story, refusing to let others define you. Use authentic experiences to inspire. Stick to your values, they are your foundation. Hold people accountable, but give them the tools to succeed. Make the tough choices; it's how you execute that counts. Be decisive in times of crisis. Be nimble. Find truth in trials and lessons in mistakes. Be responsible for what you see, hear, and do. Believe.”
